Not by a long shot. In fact nowhere close. And it is disengenious to say
Patton
said it and then when challenged say, "Oh not that Patton". There is only ONE
PATTON.
What a crock !! You know Art, your posts look more and more pathetic everyday.
The WW II Gen. Patton's son also served this country and also achieved a rank
very few do. Because he fought in Vietnam and not France and Germany, you some
how believe this to be "less than honorable". Well, I've got news for you old
man, leading men in Vietnam was a damn sight harder than leading men in the
open fields of France and George S. Patton *III* is more qualified to discuss
leadership in Vietnam than his father, even had his father lived to read about
Vietnam in the daily paper.
And another Patton can't be substituted for him. At least not to those
who fought in WW II.
You're right, the views of George S. Patton Jr. in regards to Vietnam would
have been meaningless since (had he lived) he had not served there. Now his son
on the other hand....
